RJ is a combo guard who really shows to have great body control and feel for the game from the guard position. Simmons can create off the dribble and slash to the cup with ease at times. </p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1225004" first="John" last="Templeton"] - Cathedral Academy (North Charleston) - LCE 2024 (pictured on front) </strong></p> <p>Templeton really stepped up with his play today. Templeton will be a new addition to the Generals roster this season after transferring in from Oceanside Collegiate. Templeton came out firing today knocking down several three pointers on the perimeter. John plays the game with a competitive edge and a bit of attitude at times. Templeton will be a nice addition to a already talented Generals roster for Head Coach Blake Ferguson this coming season. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/07/3890BDE5-2AB3-4809-B321-96CB169ACEE7.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1252488" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/07/3890BDE5-2AB3-4809-B321-96CB169ACEE7-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1135978" first="Brock" last="Ray"] - St John’s Christian (Monck Corners) - PSB Charleston 2024 </strong></p> <p>Ray didn’t really stand out today as his team lost to LCE 2024. Ray is a big specimen in the paint and still seems to be picking up the game. Brock has soft set of hands and nice touch around the basket. Ray didn’t receive many touches today down on the low block. Brock will be a kid to monitor in the years to come for sure with his progression. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/07/898CF8BE-BC5A-486B-B8AB-7C450827005E.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1252487" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/07/898CF8BE-BC5A-486B-B8AB-7C450827005E-300x225.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p> <p><strong>Evan Daniels - Goose Creek HS - PSB Charleston 2024 </strong></p> <p>Daniels a left-handed guard was able to knockdown some three pointers here today. Daniels plays the game with a competitive edge. Daniels will be a new name to add to the database moving forward and a nice addition to the Gators roster for Head Coach Blake Hall. </p> <p><a href="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/6C8CF632-2794-4523-9673-CD3CC2272613-crop-2037x1338-1622633736.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1206222" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/ph/uploads/2021/06/6C8CF632-2794-4523-9673-CD3CC2272613-crop-2037x1338-1622633736-300x197.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="197" /></a></p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="1206212" first="Onarae" last="Grant"] - Charleston Math &amp; Science - Port City Stars</strong> </p> <p>Grant tried to keep his team in the game but just ran out of gas. Onarae was able to drop some three pointers for his local based Charleston team. Grant was able to get downhill to the basket and score at the cup. Grant will look to be one of the leaders for the Riptide basketball program this coming season. </p>
